Some time ago we saw Akira Toriyama’s daily work, the father of Dragon ballwho spent a lot, maybe too much, in front of the television watching movies and shows. The author seems to have added some brilliant Easter eggs later, with the “Z” series curated by TOEI Animation.

In fact, there are special quotes about world masterpieces in the anime, especially the film by Tim Burton’s Batman with the presence of the Batmobile in an episode of Dragon Ball Z. But it’s not the only brilliant quote within the TV series, because in the 23rd episode, more precisely when some helicopters from some TV channels arrive to record the clash with Napa and Vegeta, it seems like a very special plane.

Apart from the fact that it is not in the shape of a real helicopter, the plane hides a brilliant Easter egg directly in the numerical code written on the metal plate. In fact, these codes are the same as the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701), Starfleet’s second warp spaceship. A special and extremely well-hidden tribute that perhaps only the most avid Star Trek fans will have noticed upon first viewing.

But did you know about this quote? Please let us know as usual with a comment in the appropriate field below.
